Anne provides private hypnotherapy sessions and group/private hypnobirthing courses and also hypnobirthing courses for the NHS.

Hypnosis is a naturally occurring state of mind. You slip in and out of trance-like states throughout the day, for example, when you daydream, read a book or when you are at your most relaxed and comfortable. You can also induce hypnosis either by yourself or through a hypnotherapist, in which both the conscious and unconscious mind may become more suggestible and open to influence and change.

Hypnotherapy uses hypnosis to gain access to the unconscious mind, so that it can find solutions to various issues that the conscious mind has been unable to deal with and of which are affecting our lives in some way because how we think, makes us feel in a certain way and makes us behave in a certain way. One of the huge advantages of hypnotherapy is that you can usually get to the root of a problem and sort it out very quickly in order for the person to live a happier, positive and more fulfilled life.

If you would like to find out more about the benefits of hypnosis and hypnotherapy, Anne will be giving a talk on the mind, the conscious and the unconscious, how it works and how what happens in our lives, good or bad, can affect they way we feel and behave. She will be talking about hypnotherapy itself and what is involved in a typical session, quelling any myths which are out there, and an exercise showing you how powerful the mind is and how suggestible you are!

Anne will also include a brief outline of hypnobirthing, what it is and how it can benefit pregnancy, birth and beyond.
